Depends on what kind of station you listened to. Remember when all of those "alternative" rock stations came out? Alternative, that's a laugh!{#Lol}

I like the strings.  Classy. And 1 extra point for mentioning NY city.  Nice.   {#Good-vibes}

I think Peter Gabriel has rather more range to his voice. He sure as feck sings more blasted notes than this guy in this song. Ho-Hum from the very first sung bar {#Sleep}

You have a complete misunderstanding of what grunge is.

Try:

Mudhoney
Melvins
Alice in Chains
Mother Love Bone
Temple of the Dog
Soundgarden
U-Men
Nirvana
The Fluid
Paw
Stone Temple Pilots
My Sister's Machine
Skinyard

Collective Soul is a great band with a tight, distinctive sound, but they are definitely not grunge.
 
You forgot Screaming Trees!

Judging from the date of the comments, I think this song is on about the right rotation - every 3 months or so. 

Commercial success ≠ awful song

Would there be objections to this song in the playlist had it not been so overplayed out in the "real" world?  I tried really hard to listen with fresh ears and I think it blends nicely into the set.  Maybe I'm just in a good mood this morning?

This song is STILL played to death on the local rock stations. No need to hear it here, too.
